7. You conduct a hypothesis test and you observe values for the sample mean and sample standard
deviation when n = 25 that do not lead to the rejection of H 0 . You calculate a p-value of 0.0667. What
will happen to the p-value if you observe the same sample mean and standard deviation for a sample >
25?

d. May either increase or decrease
